I apoIogize that I was initially going to "blame you" but the message I did post wasn't meant to convey any responsibility on your part. I guess it was an unnecessary post... It was my mistake for not reading the introduction to the Bridge's Total Recall addressing the issue, it's just that for me (and probably many others) the Top Ten's are something I quickly glance over to see if there any good films I have missed as well as compare personal favorites with RT. Now that I know how the Total Recall posts work you can rest assured that you won't receive any more hate mail on my behalf. Like Walter, I'm a little quick in standing up for the Dude, "OVER THE LINE SMOKEY"...<br><br>Thanks for the quick and courteous response.

But I don't have anything to do with which films make the list. As I point out every single week, the movies that end up in Total Recall are decided by Tomatometer. Don't blame me, in other words; blame the critics. I understand your surprise — I was surprised, too. But I don't have anything to do with which films make the list.
